Honeymoon in Reunion
|
All the intimate hotels in the Reunion Island offer honeymooners the perfect getaway following their wedding day. A honeymoon is of course more than a luxury hotel and with this in mind, it can be said that it's not merely your craze which craves to seize a moment for eternity, but the striking and pensive locale of Reunion where relation grows up and develops naturally. Honeymoon in Reunion - secluded on a lively tropical island in the Indian Ocean with sandy beaches and about a hundred shades of blue in the seas.
Saint-Denis, the chef-lieu or administrative capital of Reunion, is the largest town in the French overseas département (122,000 inhabitants). Wedged between the coastline and steep sloping mountains, it has few monuments of any size, with the exception of the sumptuous Préfecture, a veritable little palace erected in the 18th century for the island's governor, facing the ocean. More significantly, Saint-Denis has retained all the dated charm of a colonial town, with a regular grid of streets in its old town centre, teeming with life. The Rue de Paris is lined with fine Creole houses, surrounded by gardens in which mango trees, orchids, ferns, bougainvillaea and roses are constant rivals in a permanent beauty pageant. Further on, Chinese shops and Tamil stalls adjoin the picturesque Petit Marché, where fruit, vegetables and flowers blend fragrances in a frenzy of colour.
During your honeymoon trip to Reunion, you can let romance flow over twenty miles of beaches, from Saint-Paul to Petite-Ile. La Saline lagoon, with its warm and shallow waters would surely ignite your passion.
It is a land of the bed for growing spices and perfumes (rose geraniums, vetiver...). The Grègues Plain, above Saint-Joseph, is the regional capital of turmeric, a perfumed root and essential ingredient in the preparation of cari (curry).
